Thanks ladies! I'm so glad that I can share this excitement! No one else understands lol. My hair has NEVER been this long before, well after my childhood!
 
Thanks for asking the question. The difference between SL/full SL/CBL always confuses me as part of the collar bone attaches to the shoulder.
 
Congrats on your longest hair length since childhood! Now you are going to continue to set records with your length!
 
You're touching collar bone in front, but need a better shot of your hair to see if you are shoulder length.

@Ogoma, SL starts from the point where you leave NL (base of your neck) to the point where you reach CBL (lowest point of shoulders). CBL is also known as full SL.

SL is the length that seems to last the longest because right after you pass the base of your neck and are at SL you will still be at SL when you reach CBL because shoulders slant so you stay at SL all through that slant.

OP you are indeed at full SL/CBL. :up:

Ogoma, maybe this image helps you see the span of SL:

virtuenow, the collarbone is at level of the lowest part of the shoulders so there's no question about whether OP is at SL. In the pic she posted, you can see the hair goes past the middle part of her shoulders and SL is when hair is reaching shoulders--any part of shoulders.

In fact, OP may actually be beyond CBL and heading to APL coz when you pull hair forward, it reaches higher than it would if you had it going straight down in the back. Which is why most length checks on the forum involve hair reaching the back as I tried to show in a previous thread when I posted this image showing two lines that are the exact same length and how the line doesn't reach as far down in the front as it would if left in the back:

Just wanted to add, that if we are to keep things accurate and use the same "scale", then if one wants to pull your hair to the front, then one would get a better gauge if one turned one's head so as to bring your nape forward so that hair could be pulled straight down as in the back and not pulled forward first:
